I am here to talk about a roadmap for prosperity of this country. I think the elections last week, in large part, didn't deal as much with Republicans and Democrats as it dealt with a frustration over the lagging lack of prosperity this…

In yesterday's Charleston Post and Courier, Charles Krauthammer points out the President's deceit when misrepresenting ObamaCare before shoving it through a Democratic Congress. According to the column, an ``October 2013 video has surfaced…

Mr. President, I will be asking a unanimous consent request to bring up S. 2650, the Corker-Graham-McCain-Ayotte-Rubio legislation. Senator Murphy, I think, is going to speak here in a second, but if I may do two things: I wish to reserve…

I ask unanimous consent that at a time to be determined by the two leaders, but no later than November 24, 2014, the Committee on Foreign Relations be discharged from further consideration of S. 2650, that the Senate proceed to its…

Mr. President, I appreciate my colleague very much for speaking in a way so we can all have time on the issue. No. 1, about the chilling messages, this is a chilling message from the Supreme Leader of Iran about 3 days ago: Nine questions…

On October 2, the President promised, ``I'm not on the ballot this fall, but my policies are on the ballot.'' Clearly, America, which is not stupid, voted last Tuesday to stop his policies, which destroy jobs at home and weaken national…

In last week's Washington Post, columnist Charles Krauthammer analyzed the President's plan to defeat ISIL: ``Beyond the strategy's halfhearted substance is the author's halfhearted tone. Obama's reluctance and ambivalence are obvious…

Absolutely. Mr. McCAIN. I note the presence of our colleague from California, so I will make it short. Last night I had an exchange with the former spokesperson for the White House, and again this issue came up and the assertion, the…

Thank you. If I may, this is the anniversary of 9/11. Thirteen years ago on this date our country was attacked by radical Islamists who don't want your car, they don't want your bank account, they don't want your television. They are not…

I remember getting a phone call from then-Secretary Clinton asking me and Senator McCain and Senator Levin to go to Iraq and see if we could intervene and help the Iraqis make a decision about a residual force because we thought it was in…

Last month's jobs report revealed the worst numbers of the year. Millions of Americans are continuing to drop out of the workforce, destroying opportunity. A clear symbol of the President's failure is that 14 million more people are forced…
